I have it for years. Yes, I paid more, and at that time it was as expensive as my bike. But every time I load/unload my bike, I am glad I did buy this. Yes, it's a bit bulky, but it has wheels to help carry it from the garage.
I did drive 700miles recently with 2 bikes in the back and was not concerned at all that something would break.

Too bad that there is no extra bike extension for this type.

This is cheaper than the pro form price for industry employees. If you're on the fence you're very unlikely to find this cheaper anywhere.

Great find OP!

I have this for our two e-bikes and very highly recommend for both the price and design. The thing is rock solid. With both bikes loaded, I drive 80 mph all day long. No shakes or rattles. Paid almost $7k for the bikes and I didn't want to risk damage to them with a cheapo rack.

If anyone out there is expecting to buy an e-bike, you definitely want this. Has locks for both the trailer hitch mount and each of the bikes. Do yourself a favor. Buy this. I am a cheapskate by nature but am glad that I went all out on this. With an employee discount, I still paid $750. At the posted price, you can't go wrong.

This is a great deal. I have the 4 bike version and did a 3000 mile road trip this summer without a hitch (pun intended).

REI retail price is $850. Best I could get that down was about $650 ish with their one item 20% off coupon. This is a big savings.

Seemingly OOS now, I tried adding it to cart but wasn't there. Refreshing the page shows no more in stock.

Yes. The 1.5" hitch will move in a 2" hitch. You'll need to buy a 0.5" converter casing to allow it to fit correctly.

Thanks OP. Note - This rack requires that the arm must be attached to the bike frame. This can cause damage to the frame especially if carbon. I learned Thule does make a carbon frame protector that works with this specific rack.

I've had a lot of bike racks in my life and this is by far and away the best. It holds two ebikes (50lbs each) easily. It's easy to move around (has wheels when it is folded up. Mostly, it holds two bikes securely and without it taking a long time to get them in place.
It is much better than its predecessor.
The ramp is nice and stores away inside the rack when you're not using it. However, if you can lift your bike you probably won't use it.
The clamps in the middle make securing the bikes easy. However, you're going to want to remember which way you put your bike in so you don't have to reposition the clamp (not a big deal) every time.
The clamps easily lock as does the rack to the hitch all with the same key.

The only negative is that I wish the knob that tightens the rack to the hitch gave you more leverage (maybe a ratcheting lever).

This is also a great price. I paid about $200 more a few months ago.
